DoD and VA Appeals
from VET2VET Hosted by VET2VET
Appeals process: The multi-stage appellate process is available to you after you have already received one or more decisions on your claim, but disagree with some aspect of VA’s decision. During the appellate process, an appeal undergoes additional independent reviews, often multiple times and by different adjudicators, as you or your representative submit new evidence and/or a new argument. Nearly 74 percent of appeals are from Veterans who are already receiving VA disability compensation, but are seeking either a higher level of compensation or payment from an earlier effective date. VA has modernized and updated its appeals process to better ensure Veterans receive the benefits they deserve in a more-timely manner.
